Also reduce CPU usage when applying `series_limit` to scrape targets with constant set of metrics.
The main idea is to perform the calculations on scrape_series_added and series_limit
only if the set of metrics exposed by the target has been changed.
Scrape targets rarely change the set of exposed metrics,
so this optimization should reduce CPU usage in general case.
These actions simlify metrics filtering. For example,
- action: keep_metrics
regex: 'foo|bar|baz'
would leave only metrics with `foo`, `bar` and `baz` names, while the rest of metrics will be deleted.
The commit also makes possible to split long regexps into multiple lines. For example, the following config is equivalent to the config above:
- action: keep_metrics
regex:
- foo
- bar
- baz
New UI pages:
/ - welcome page with API handlers list;
/groups - list of all rules per group;
/alerts - list of all active alerts;
/groupID/alertID/status - status of the active alert;
The number of series per target can be limited with the following options:
* Global limit with `-promscrape.maxSeriesPerTarget` command-line option.
* Per-target limit with `max_series: N` option in `scrape_config` section.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1561
* dasbhoard: replace `null` datasources
null datasource value may confuse Grafana and make it drop panel query in some
versions.
* docker: bump grafana image version
* dashboards: add URL variable selector to vmagent dashboard
* dashboards: add new panel `Remote write connection saturation` to vmagent dashboard
* alerts: add new alert for `Remote write connection saturation` panel of vmagent dashboard
* dashboards: add "Logging rate" panel to vmagent dashboard
The purpose of update is to make README and flags description more
clear to the reader. Especially, show that vm-account-id flag is required
for clustered version of VM.
* vmalert: allow extra GET params in datasource package
ExtraParams will be added as GET params to every HTTP request made by datasource.
The `roundDigits` param, for example, was substituted by corresponding extra param.
* vmalert: add nocache=1 param for replay process
The `nocache=1` param is VictoriaMetrics specific parameter which prevents it
from caching and boundaries aligning for queries. We set it to avoid cache
pollution in `replay` mode and also to avoid unnecessary time range boundaries
alignment.
* vmalert: mention nocache=1 in replay description
* vmalert: fix bug with unused param
* vmalert: remove `vmalert_execution_duration_seconds` metric
The summary for `vmalert_execution_duration_seconds` metric gives no additional
value comparing to `vmalert_iteration_duration_seconds` metric.
* vmalert: update config reload success metric properly
Previously, if there was unsuccessfull attempt to reload config and then
rollback to previous version - the metric remained set to 0.
* vmalert: add Grafana dashboard to overview application metrics
* docker: include vmalert target into list for scraping
* vmalert: extend notifier metrics with addr label
The change adds an `addr` label to metrics for alerts_sent and alerts_send_errors
to identify which exact address is having issues.
The according change was made to vmalert dashboard.
* vmalert: update documentation and docker environment for vmalert's dashboard
Mention Grafana's dashboard in vmalert's README in a new section #Monitoring.
Update docker-compose env to automatically add vmalert's dashboard.
Update docker-compose README with additional info about services.
